It shall be this one's duty to offer recipes and menus. These will be easy to follow, and tested to be good enough that a slave would allow his Master to serve it to Master's Guests and reflect only the best of his Master.
For far worse than Master's anger is Master's disappointment.

Dollar Dinners or there abouts

With
it coming to the end of the month, slave thought it would throw
together a few ideas for very cheep eating! While they might add up
to two or three dollars, the idea is to be as cheap as possible, yet
still be healthy.

Roasted
Corn

Three
ears of corn for a dollar yields about 3 cups of the most fantastic
dish. You really don't need anything else except for ice water.

3
Ears of corn

3
Tbs oil

1
teaspoon of sugar.

1
teaspoon kosher salt

Husk
the corn and brush well to remove the “silk”.

Cut
kernels from the ears into a large bowl

Add
the oil and toss with fingers until well mixed. Spread it out on a
foil lined pan.

Sprinkle
the sugar across evenly followed by the kosher slat.

roast
in 450 degree oven for 20 minutes stirring once. Trust
your senses on this, you will be able to smell the corn as soon as it
is ready and a few of the kernels are starting to turn color.

====================================

Chicken
Cordon Bleu

Jump
at what is on sale! Slave found this individual Chicken Cordon Bleu
frozen packs on sale 2 for $1.29. Needed something to balance it out
so I opened a can of peach halves.

Spooned
some left over Lemon Cream Cheese Frosting on each and dusted with
cinnamon.

About
4 minutes before the time was up on the chicken, I slid the peaches
in the oven to heat up together.

Yes,
the total was more than a dollar, but still incredibly inexpensive
and the taste was fantastic.

============================

French
Toast

This
whole meal was taken from things already in the pantry. A good meal
does not have to include a big hunk of cow

Ingredients:

4
slices on white bread

½
Cup all purpose flour

½
teaspoon salt

2
Eggs

½
Cup milk

1
teaspoon Vanilla

============================

Directions

Heat
3-4 tablespoons oil in skillet
over medium high heat.

Mix
the flour and salt, then add eggs, vanilla, and milk. Whisk together
just until no big lumps.

Dip
first piece in batter then fry in skillet. Turn when patches of
golden brown show.

Do
this first one by itself!. I was amazed to find that most chefs agree
the first one usually does not come out right, so it is disposable!

============================

Liver!

Slave
is so lucky to have a BFF like Charlie. You see, Charlies family has
a farm and he butchers every year and freezes the meat. This week he
brought over some beef liver. (Charlie loves it but his wife does
NOT). Liver is just full of all kind of good stuff for your health
and at the same time is very inexpensive.

Unfortunately
many people just have not taken the time to learn HOW to cook it.
Try this easy way that keeps your house from smelling like onions for
a week.
